By downloading, installing, or using the Prohor application ("App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App.

These Terms apply to all users of the App, including users who browse without an account (guests) and registered users.

2. About Prohor

Prohor is a Bangladesh-focused news summarization application that aggregates and summarizes publicly available news articles from third-party publishers. Prohor does not produce original journalism. All news summaries are generated from existing published sources, which are cited within the App. Summaries are produced with AI assistance and reviewed by Prohor's editorial team; the original publisher is always linked.

Prohor is operated by Prohor Media (prohor.media).

The underlying articles remain the intellectual property of their respective publishers. We do not claim ownership of third-party content.

6.3 User Content. If you submit any content to the App (such as feedback or reports), you grant Prohor a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to use, reproduce, and display that content for the purposes of operating and improving the App.

7. Accuracy of News Summaries

Prohor uses automated AI systems with human oversight to generate news summaries. While we make reasonable efforts to ensure accuracy, we do not guarantee that summaries are complete, current, or error-free. Summaries are intended as brief overviews only. For full details of any news story, you should read the original article via the source link provided within the App.

Prohor is not responsible for any decisions you make based on information read in the App.

The App collects certain information about your usage and preferences to personalize your news feed. How we collect and use this information is described in detail in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

9. Third-Party Links

The App contains links to third-party news websites. These links are provided for your convenience. Prohor has no control over the content of those websites and accepts no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them. Visiting a third-party website is at your own risk.
